At nine o 'clock in the morning the next day, the number one square of the Emperor Light Academy was filled with a sea of people, and in the middle of the square stood a huge arena. This was the start of the Emperor Light Academy's Cultivation Room Ranking Competition.
Ren Tianyou arrived at the plaza and found his class. He saw that Yan Xinluo and the others had already arrived. Only Ren Tianyou was left. Ren Tianyou stepped forward and greeted them. At this time, Yun Leixiao, who was beside him, said, "The four of you, listen up. The matches for the top 16 are about to begin. If you encounter Zhou Guangsheng from the illusion department, other than Yan Xinluo and Ren Tianyou, the two of you better surrender."
"Why?" Hearing Yun Leixiao's words, Ren Tianyou and the others asked in unison. Their voices were filled with surprise. They did not understand why Yun Leixiao would say such a thing.
"Because that guy called Zhou Guangsheng is an extremely dangerous guy. His illusion skills are at least at the intermediate level of a Great Illusion Master, or even higher. Moreover, although everyone who fought with him did not suffer any serious injuries, their mental strength was severely depleted and they were bedridden for about two to three days. So I'm telling the two of you to quickly admit defeat if you encounter him. Other than Tianyou and Xinluo, the two of them might be able to defeat this guy. The two of you will only increase the damage. "Yun Leixiao said slowly with a serious expression.
"Isn't the strongest person in the illusion department Li Xinyun? When did this Zhou Guangsheng appear? And I've never heard of this guy before. "Sun Chuqian asked with a puzzled expression.
"I've never heard of this person either." Wang Haiqing also shook his head and said that he had never heard of this person.
"It's normal that you haven't heard of this person. Like Tianyou and Xinluo, he passed the test and entered Emperor Light Academy. It has only been half a month since he entered the class. After observing these few matches, we suspect that he might be from the Illusion God's Palace because I discovered that he uses the Illusion God's unique illusion. "Wang Jiafei explained to Ren Tianyou and the others.
"Illusion God's Palace!" Ren Tianyou exclaimed, "I didn't expect to encounter someone from the Illusion God's Palace so soon after I read the records."
"That's right, it's the Illusion God's Palace. So the two of you should listen to your Teacher Yun and admit defeat if you encounter him."
"Got it."
"Okay." After listening to Wang Jiafei's words, Sun Chuqian and Wang Haiqing agreed unwillingly.
"Alright, I've said what I need to say. The rest of the competition is up to you."
.....
After another half an hour, a cool breeze suddenly flashed past the stage, followed by the Principal of the Emperor Academy, Long Feilu, suddenly appearing on the stage, "Good morning, fellow students of the Emperor Academy."
"After four days of intense selection, the first years' cultivation room qualifier has finally ended. We have also selected the top 16 for the competition. Today is our school's Top 16 to Top 8 competition, I hope that all the Emperor Light Academy students will do their best to obtain a good result. Alright, this old man will no longer waste everyone's time. Now, I announce the official start of the competition. "With that, Long Feilu's figure flashed and disappeared from the stage.
At the VIP stand on the plaza, Long Feilu's figure suddenly appeared on the seat beside him. Seeing that Long Feilu had returned, Vice Principal Zhao Guanghui laughed, "Old Long, this year's competition is going to be interesting."
"Oh, what's there to see?" Long Feilu asked with a strange expression.
"Hehe, you don't know, but the people from the Death God Clan have also appeared. One of their clansmen is in our academy."
"What? There are people from the Death God Clan in our academy. "Long Feilu asked in surprise.
"That's right, and the people from the Illusory God Palace and the Phoenix Flame Villa are also here."
"Oh, looks like this competition is going to be interesting." After hearing Zhao Guanghui's words, a glint flashed across Long Feilu's eyes as he muttered to himself.
.....
Following Long Feilu's announcement of the start of the competition, names suddenly flashed across the huge magic screen in the plaza.
"Ding!" Following a "ding" sound, the magic screen displayed two people's names.
"Eh, my luck is so good, I actually have to be the first cannon." Ren Tianyou looked at the name in the magic class and was a little dumbfounded. It was clearly written: Ren Tianyou VS Cai Minghui.
"Haha, Tianyou, you're actually the first to go up. Do your best, you must win." When Wang Haiqing saw that the one who went up was actually Ren Tianyou, he was also a little surprised and opened his mouth to encourage Ren Tianyou.
"Hehe, don't worry, when have I ever let you down?" After Ren Tianyou finished speaking, his figure gradually disappeared and appeared on the stage.
Ren Tianyou threw the identity card in his hand to the referee beside him and waited for his opponent to arrive. After waiting for about a minute, a strong man carrying two giant swords in his hands came up to the stage. He threw the identity card to the referee and stood opposite of Ren Tianyou.
"Alright, the contestants are all here. Let the competition begin." Seeing that everyone was here, the referee announced the start of the competition.
As the referee's voice fell, a fiery red Dou Qi immediately appeared on Cai Minghui's body. The blazing heat evaporated the surrounding air.
"Flame Lion Bloodline, appear!"
"Roar!" As Cai Minghui's voice fell, an illusory fiery red shadow of a Flame Lion suddenly appeared behind him. The Flame Lion raised its head and let out a roar. Then, it turned into a fiery red light and drilled into Cai Minghui's body.
As the shadow of the Flame Lion entered Cai Minghui's body, a huge change occurred on the surface of Cai Minghui's body. A fiery red energy armor gradually appeared on Cai Minghui's body. An energy helmet appeared on Cai Minghui's head, on the front of the armor was a huge Flame Lion's head. Even the two giant swords in his hands were covered by a fiery red energy.
In contrast to Cai Minghui's huge change, Ren Tianyou was still as ordinary as when he first came up to the stage. There was no change in him at all. However, both of his eyes had become blood-red. Inside each of his eyeballs, there were three dart-shaped objects spinning rapidly.
After finishing his preparations, Cai Minghui carried the two giant swords in his hands and turned into a fiery red light as he rushed toward Ren Tianyou. As the distance between them gradually shortened, Ren Tianyou could even feel a wave of heat coming from Cai Minghui's body.
Just as he was about to be hit, Ren Tianyou turned into a shadow and disappeared. Then, he appeared behind Cai Minghui and kicked at Cai Minghui's head with his right foot.
However, Cai Minghui was clearly prepared for Ren Tianyou's ghost-like speed. After all, Ren Tianyou had always used speed to finish off his previous battles. Cai Minghui flipped his right hand and the giant sword in his hand blocked Ren Tianyou's attack.
"Bang." Ren Tianyou's right foot heavily hit Cai Minghui's giant sword, making a loud sound. Ren Tianyou's eyes flashed with surprise. His body drew an arc in the air and steadily landed on the ground.
"Hmph! Although you are very fast, it is useless against me. You will lose this match for sure." Cai Minghui steadied himself and looked at Ren Tianyou as he spoke, enunciating each word clearly.
"Oh, is that so?" Hearing Cai Minghui's words, Ren Tianyou did not refute. He only smiled mysteriously and his body instantly turned into a shadow as he rushed toward Cai Minghui.
This match had officially kicked off its climax … (To be continued.)
